Reader of books. Master of all things silly and ridiculous. Theatre and Shakespeare are two of my favorite things. Love classic films, and all things musical. I am also a huge football fan (both English and American: Liverpool and Steelers), and love hiking etc. Life is here to live so I'll try most things once.

What I’m doing with my life

Living it mostly. And having a good time into the bargain. Working at NYU and enjoying it. Applying to Ph.D in Teaching and Learning literacy, because literacy is importante, and needs new and innovative ways to be accessible/understood(sidenote:didn't get in, this time, but the fight for literacy innovation rages on).. I am an Alto, and rock it pretty hard. Mozart is my jam. Or kuglen. Take your pick. Went to Costa Rica in August and loved it. Now taking Spanish as a result.

I’m really good at

Many things. Modesty above all.

The first things people usually notice about me

My infectious laughter.

Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food

Books: all Shakespeare, Austen, murakami, woolf, tolkien.I'm a reader so will read most anything to expand my horizons. I recently read Artful by Ali Smith and now want to read everything she has ever written. Also, finally taking the plunge to read A Song of Ice and Fire.
